Beautiful chalet in a fantastic location
This is a lovely apartment with stunning views close to the centre of Samoens. The hosts are extremely helpful and welcoming and the chalet is very well equipped. We had a very comfortable stay and would definitely return. Highly recommend.

Well appointed apartment only a few minutes walk into Samoens.
Buqa is a lovely apartment set out over three floors. The heated floors are a definite highlight making the apartment comfortably warm the instant you walk through the door. Our party consisted of four adults and two children and there was plenty of space for us to chill out as a group. The media set up in the apartment is fantastic with loads of films available on four TVs throughout the property. Luckily for us the snow was fantastic with plenty of great skiing and snowboarding. All in all a great week.

Chalet idéal
Nous avons passé une excellente semaine dans ce magnifique chalet, tout équipé, avec tout le confort comme à la maison. Le chalet est suffisamment espacé du centre de la ville pour séjourner au calme, assez proche pour rejoindre les commerces à pied et avec une vue magnifique sur Samoëns. Monsieur Gillu est très arrangeant, de bons conseils et fort agréable. Mamie Chantal n’est pas prête de l’oublier 😄

Joli logement, très bien équipé et calme
Appartement confortable et très bien équipé (cuisine, sdb, console de jeux) dans un environnement très calme avec une belle vue sur les montagnes. Par contre, 10 minutes à pied de l'arrêt du skibus (Place des 7 Monts, ligne jaune), avec une 'bonne' montée au retour avec le matériel de ski. A prendre en compte surtout avec des enfants. Nous recommandons tout de même pour le charme du lieu et de Samoens (nombreux chalets, centre charmant).

Sehr schöne Ferienhaushälfte in toller Lage
Wir (4 Erwachsene + 4 Kinder) waren 1 Woche zum Skifahren in Samoens. Die Unterkunft liegt sehr central (5min zu Fuss ins Zentrum). Man hat alles was man benötigt. Viel Entertainment (Spielekonsolen, 4 Flachbildfernseher, die wir aber kaum genutzt haben). Schöner Wohnbereich mit Kamin. Garage mit Schuhheizung. Zur Gondel sind es 3min mit dem Auto oder man kann auch in ca 20min hinlaufen oder mit dem Skibus fahren. Wir hatten eine wunderschöne Woche und können die Unterkunft nur empfehlen.
